DIIINlTIO!t9.—Aclds are sour substan- ces, such as vinegar, oil of vitriol, (sul- phuric acid,) lemon-juice, &c. Alkalies are nubstances like potash, soda, &c. which have a caustic (burning) taste. Acid will destroy the properties of an alkali, and iaicr earsc; that is, they will unite together, and both lose their properties. For example, we can mix sulphuric acid, which is it powerful acid, and capable of destroying the Hush immediately, with strong quick-lime, which is so cauntic or homing, as to destroy the clothing or lfesh, and when united they will both lose their properties, and form the mild, tasteless, harmless plaster of Paris. If an acid were swallowed by a person, the physician or chemist would administer an alkali to combine with it, and destroy its action upon the system. So, ifan alkali were swallowed, he would give an acid. There are many alkalies, though but few of thorn are common. We seldom meet with more than five of these, viz: potash, soda, ammonia, litne, and magnesia. The nnmesnf these can be readily remembered by noticing. that the first letters, in the vnrder which we have placed them, spell the .word Psalm. Ammonia is what is common- ly csllcd hartshorn. ’Any one of these five suastances will unite with an acid and neo- tr ize or destroy its properties. Novat.

Specimens of the new paper have been distributed by the inventor, S. R. Andres, Esq., of Chambly, and highly com- mcndatory notice has been taken of it in several journals. Any person who has examined these s cimens must feel satis- fied that n valuab e discovery has been ac- coniplisbed, which will soon be carried to great perfection. The American name of the plant is the most expressive “ White- top ;" but in Canada it is called " Immor- telle” and thence " Life Everlasting.” The learned botanical term for it, is gna- phalium, and hence the manufactured ar- ticle is called by way of distinction “Gna- phnlic Paper.” The paper is glossy, smooth and thin, and evidently tnuch stronger than that de- generate kind in the manufacture of which cotton is so largely ttsed. The stalk as 'well its the flower of the plant may be em- ployed, but from the white silky flowers alone a finer and whiter article can of course be produced. The manufacturers assert that, without taking into considera- ti~.n the difference of the cost of materials, paper may be made from this plant at I2} per cent less expense than from rags. The: adhesive qunlites of the plant are such that, in the manufacture of the paper, no animal matter need be used, and a ood surface is obtained without sizing. he Messrs. Andres have secured a patent for the in- vention, and intend to erect a large manu- fitctory on their own remises; they can- not fail to refiect cre it on Canada, and we sincerely wish them succesnin their use- ful undertaking.--Quebec Chronicle.

But when, in order to carry t ese regulations into efi'ect, a trifling sum is demanded from each of the inhabitants, in proportion to their means of‘ payment, it is truly surprising—or rather would be, if it were not: so oommon—to find what an outer is raised. “Taxes!

To run Entroit or II.tszsito's Gazrrrx. in; The necessity of supplying large Towns with pure water has long been a question of the firet importance, and Otto that has occupied the attention of the most profound and learned men of the past and resentceuturies. It beln ad- mitted on all sides that such supply wou d be conducive to the general health und morale of the community: permit me shortly to draw public attention to the meagre and impure sup- ply at present ufibrdad to the» lnliubitunts of tlita town, the Cu itnl of the Islutid. The number 0 Pumps already distributed over our streets with the increasing demand for others, is, in my opinion, the very best argument I could ndduce to prove that some’ other mode must of necessity soon be adopted to supply the eople of this town with one of thctirst necessaries of life (i e) pure water. It has been-asked b some doubting ones, how is all this to be accomplished, thiecolony possess- es none of those natural advantages en’ yed by more mountainous districts, thus the level cha- racter of this Island precludes us from getting our supply on the well known principles of Hytlrostutics, without the aid of Steam, or Water power. This, I ndtuit,is n dilliculty that ull level countries have to contend with, for example: Glasgow ‘in Scotland it City contain- ing agiopultstion of five hundred thottsand. and Phtla elphia in the United States of America have to raise all their supply by pumps to meet the daily wants of the inhabitants. - Let us see what advantages we possess, ifdtiy, over other towns in reforcnco to water, it is true, we have no large ponds or htkes in the neighbourhood of the town. nevertheless we have some fine springs and streams, wbiiih at a very moderate expanse might be made avail- able; this together with the great facility with which pipes can laid down, when coinper with other towns being one tenth less than in St. John or Halifax, is of itself nuflcieut to remove sortie of the objections. » Is it not a fact that from the want of it good supply of water in Pipes, and a proper system of under ground sewerage ; the inhabitants of this Town cannot by any possibility drain their cellars, hove" bath rooms or water closcts in their Houses!
